Publisher's Synopsis
Do you find yourself often feeling stressed or panicky? Does it seem like there is never enough time in the day to get things done? Do you spend a lot of time thinking about what disasters could happen? Do you beat yourself up about past mistakes and faux pas? Do you worry to the point where it's excessive about the state of your relationships and how they feel about you on a day to day basis? Is it impossible for you to relax no matter how hard you try?
If you answered yes to most of these things, you are suffering from the habit of overthinking. It causes you to take everything personally. It is what makes you start to worry about your partner being angry with you when they do not text back. It is what makes you cringe at the embarrassing thing you did years ago that everyone else has forgotten about now. It is what gives you that sensation of your heart pounding quickly and your thoughts racing around in a discombobulated mess. Overthinking is very common among people with anxiety. This is because anxiety causes a person to sense danger when there is none.
